Rapper Rick Ross has reportedly suffered a second medical emergency on a plane Friday while travelling to Memphis to perform at a college basketball kickoff.

The Miami-based artist's private jet to Tennessee was forced to land in Birmingham, Alabama when he suffered a seizure, according to reports.

The incident happened just hours after Ross suffered a medical emergency on board a flight from Fort Lauderdale to Memphis, prompting the pilot to return to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, reports the Associated Press.

"There was a private plane that was routed here for medical purposes," a representative of Birmingham-Shuttlesworth Airport confirmed to E! Online.

The rapper's health first made news Friday morning when Delta Airlines flight 1310 reported a medical emergency shortly after its 12:21 p.m. takeoff and returned to the airport, confirmed Broward County Aviation spokesman Greg Meyer.

Broward Fire Rescue officials said an adult male was treated with "advanced life-support care," on scene and was transported to Broward General Medical center.
